It's a black room
thats were it begins
a coal black, soul black room
silently ominous but serene
it has no walls or boundaries
no light permeates the room
that room
that room where I always begin
but it's not me
for if it where me...
would I not have hands
the form which i call me appears
a simple quiet form called "me"
looking up I see his eyes
azure eyes
they are filled with tears
not a word from his mouth
stepping forward the form is encircled
with a blue aura that eminates
muscles are tensed and taught
holding tight
holding something unseen back
the form seems to tire and weary
eyes filled with fear
I see it is not me that he focuses on
it is a female
she has an aura of pure white
raven black hair falls about her shoulders
green cat like eyes look from her perfect form
my sentience rise up to watch them both
she embraces him
and he lets go a little more
comfort resides within her embrace
he becomes relaxed and his aura turns black
fear eminates through the air
not hers but his as bursting free
screams pierce the silence
horns sprout and bat wings appear
his face is not me anymore
yet it is
a daemon form stands with her
she moves to embrace it.....
a single tear runs down her face
a crystal tear as the daemon moves to strike
The creature moves with swiftness
eternity passes as I watch
wanting to scream a warning to ehr
wanting to save her
but I am transfixed by her tear
it falls majestically toward the floor
the creature flys forward
it raises it's hand and I realise
that hand is my own
that claw becomes a gental hand upon the beast
with an audible shatter the tear hits the floor
a cresendo of shards spreading through that pitch black room
and with the tear the daemon shatters
falling to the ground in a crumpled heap
and it is no longer the daemon
the shrowds of the daemon had disapeared
kneeling infront of her is a weeping child
she moves to comfort him
and I look up in to her eyes
compassion shows with no fear
I cry
cry without the ability to stop
sobs wrack my body
blink for a second
It's a black room
thats where it begins
in that coal black, soul black room
